Is it me? A parking/ boundary one

Ok,I live at the end house of a cul de sac.
I have a big drive.
I obviously have to drive over my neighbours drive to access my property.
For context my drive/ front garden can happily house 5 cars which it does as I have a car, my DH has a van and my boys both have a car.
Which we park on our drive,
Saturday I weeded my front garden.
Reversed my car to overhang the neighbours property by 2 foot
Her car is on her drive 15 foot away so in no way does it impact her access.
She called the police...
They actually came round!
Wtaf?
Yeah they were suitably embarrassed as I sent them away as they obviously knew she is crackers 😂
Hope the photo works 🫰

I suspect you will have a red face if OP comes back with a proper explanation and/or diagram. It's certainly not clear/obvious from the information we have. I hope you never do Jury service.

It shows on the picture that she provided and then op also said that her next door neighbours driveway is 15/20 feet away from her own drive so it's not that difficult to understand.

#Isittimeformynapyet
I was tempted not to reply as to why I use the word said and twice as you pointed out, but I think I will........using the word said is a demonstrative adjective.
Often used in a legal capacity.
Demonstrative adjectives are used to identify or express the relative position of a noun.
Hope you now understand why I chose to use the word said twice.

OP hasn’t been back since yesterday evening. I suspect the vino collapso was behind most of the nonsensical aspects to the story (which was most of it). The thread has given me a good chuckle though, so thank you.

Well apparently it is for you. You have claimed on the basis of zero evidence that OP has parked in "the road". It's far from clear on the information we have whether that is in fact a road or part of a shared drive. But you carry on asserting stuff without any actual facts. As I said, I hope you are never called for Jury service.

Petition to banish OP from Mumsnet forever if they don't return promptly with a DIAGRAM and a coherent argument

It was clear to me on the photo provided. Hey ho, I'm not up for arguing about someone elses parking difficulties. I found the description and photo very easy to understand which is why I cannot fathom how it is so difficult to grasp.

It is not difficult to grasp; there is significant missing information - why are you finding that so hard to understand?
